Replacing Teeth Protects the Rest
Why Replace a Missing Tooth?
A missing tooth is more than a gap in your smile — it sets off a chain of changes in the rest of your mouth. When a tooth is gone, the neighboring teeth gradually drift and tip into the empty space, and the tooth in the opposing jaw can over-erupt because it no longer meets anything when you bite. This shifts your bite, creates new spots where food and plaque collect, and can make several teeth harder to clean.
Beneath the gap, the jawbone begins to shrink. Bone is maintained by the stimulation of chewing through the tooth root; once that root is gone, the body slowly resorbs the bone in that area. Over years, significant bone loss can change the way your face looks around the mouth and make future tooth replacement more involved. This is why replacing a tooth sooner rather than later is so valuable.
The best replacement option depends on how many teeth are missing, the health of your jawbone, your timeline, and your budget. At Tribute Family Dentistry in Frisco, we walk you through every option and help you choose what fits your situation, with implant placement and surgical care provided right here. For trusted background, see the ADA’s guide to missing teeth.
Options to Replace Missing Teeth
Dental Implants
The gold standard. A dental implant replaces the whole tooth — root and crown — preserving bone and lasting for decades.
Dental Bridges
A bridge fills the gap using the neighboring teeth for support — a proven, fixed solution for one or more missing teeth.
Partial Dentures
When several teeth are missing, a partial denture restores function and appearance at a budget-friendly cost.
Complete Dentures
For a full arch, modern complete dentures restore a confident smile and the ability to eat and speak comfortably.
Implant-Supported Options
Implants can anchor a bridge or denture for added stability — combining the best of both for a secure, natural feel.
Experienced Implant Placement
Dr. David Roberts has placed implants for over 35 years, with IV sedation available for a comfortable experience.
Why Not to Wait to Replace a Tooth
- Neighboring teeth drift into the empty space
- The opposing tooth can over-erupt and shift the bite
- Jawbone shrinks where the tooth is missing
- Chewing and speaking become harder
- Earlier replacement usually means simpler treatment

What to Expect at Your Consultation
At your consultation we examine the gap and the surrounding teeth and gums, and take X-rays or a 3D scan to assess the jawbone — which is key to knowing whether you are a candidate for an implant or whether a bridge or denture is a better fit. We talk through what matters most to you: longevity, cost, how quickly you want the gap filled, and whether you prefer something fixed or removable.
Then we lay out your options side by side with honest pros, cons, and costs, including financing and your insurance benefits. Because we provide implants, bridges, and dentures all in one office — with surgical placement and sedation here — you can complete your treatment from start to finish without being referred elsewhere.

Missing Teeth FAQs
What are my options to replace a missing tooth?
Common options are a dental implant (which replaces root and crown and preserves bone), a fixed bridge, or a removable partial denture. For many missing teeth, complete or implant-supported dentures restore a full smile.
What happens if I don’t replace a missing tooth?
Neighboring teeth drift into the gap, the opposing tooth can over-erupt, and the jawbone shrinks where the tooth is missing, affecting your bite and facial shape. Earlier replacement usually means simpler treatment.
Are dental implants better than bridges or dentures?
Implants are often considered the gold standard because they replace the tooth root, preserve bone, and last decades, but bridges and dentures are excellent options depending on your situation and budget. We review all options with you.
How long do dental implants last?
With good care, dental implants can last for decades and often a lifetime, while the crown on top may eventually need replacement. Implants also help preserve the jawbone that supports your face.
Can I replace several missing teeth at once?
Yes. Several missing teeth can be replaced with a bridge, a partial denture, or implant-supported options, and a full arch can be restored with complete or implant-supported dentures. We tailor the plan to your needs and budget.

Yes. We replace missing teeth for new and existing patients from Frisco, The Colony, Little Elm, and Prosper, with implant placement and IV sedation available in-office. Call (469) 598-1021.
